Hohem’s tiny steadycam has a removable action cam

According to The Verge, camera accessory manufacturer Hohem has unveiled its latest product, the Eyepic, a handheld stabilized camera designed to compete with established market leaders like DJI and Insta360. The device distinguishes itself from current offerings by featuring a removable action camera module, a design choice intended to provide users with greater flexibility in how they capture footage.

At its core, the Eyepic utilizes a rotating preview screen and a stabilized camera module, sharing functional similarities with popular devices such as the Osmo Pocket 4 and the Insta360 Luna Ultra. By allowing the camera component to be detached from the handheld gimbal base, Hohem is positioning the device as a versatile tool for creators who require both stabilized cinematic shots and the rugged, mountable utility of a traditional action camera.

This launch represents a strategic effort by Hohem to carve out a niche in the increasingly crowded market for compact, stabilized imaging devices. While the company has historically focused on smartphone gimbals, the Eyepic marks a shift toward integrated, all-in-one camera systems. Industry analysts note that the success of such a product will likely depend on the quality of the sensor and the software ecosystem supporting the removable module, as it faces stiff competition from brands with deep-rooted consumer loyalty.
